Case Study Of Setco Automotive
Setco Automotive does not give out any incentives to their employees, the only thing our company gives us is a twenty-five dollar gift card for Thanksgiving and Christmas.

    When thinking about corporate culture and ethics the company that came to mind for me was Tim McCauley Trucking LLC (TMCT) a company I worked for as a dispatcher for several years. TMCT was a company that believed in values, integrity, and consistency in how they treated employees, vendors, and customers. One of the main things that Mr. McCauley would always say is "that in order to succeed you must know where you are trying to go, what you are trying to do along the way, how you want to be remembered for doing it, what are you going to do when you get there, and how do you plan to hang on to what you have". Mr. McCauley was talking about having ethical values that the company stood for in the beginning, along the way to his success, and…

    Interesting that you noted that CarMax should own its own used car retail establishment, rather than continue to buy-buy and lease-back properties. For the most part, I can see why CarMax would buy-back and lease-back property when it first entered in the used car industry. Maybe CarMax believed that it would be cost efficient to buy-back and lease-back property. However, now that CarMax is America's number one used car retailer, I agree with you that the used car retailer should capitalize on establishing its own buildings, repair and refurnishing car shops, CarMax would not have to rely heavily on other companies manufacturing equipment.…

    1. Cameron was right to have licensed to McTaggart. Expansion strategies, as discussed in class, have different barriers and costs. For example, for Cameron to have entered a joint venture with the company would have cost both sides a lot of money and time. For Cameron to have expanded into the UK - what Andy had argued - would have been the most expensive and time consuming of the four options. The company definitely has money, however the extra cash needed to finance such large operations isn’t available.…

    I have been assigned to help with the analysis of reviewing and redesigning the collections, disbursements and forecasting processes. I am also tasked with making suggestions on how to proceed with this redesign. One problem I found with GMC’s collections process is that they are currently heavily reliant on receiving payments by check. Over 90% of domestic customers, about 85% of total revenue, pay by check sent to the company’s headquarters. Another problem with domestic customers is that 35% of them are in the western region of the United States which has the longest mail time of all regions at 4 days. This process is a lot slower than other methods which results in GMC having a longer collection float than necessary. There are similar problems with their international customers.…

    Toyota is a typical example of how Japanese industry succeeded. Although it is often conservative in design and not very creative in bringing new ideas, its special attention to build quality and reliability wins customer confidence gradually. Its emphasis on technology development and production efficiency results in up-to-date products and good value for money. That 's why its cars capture a lot of brains if not hearts. Nevertheless, in recent years Toyota starts getting more creative no matter in design and technology. Examples are Pruis and IQ. Hopefully it will be even stronger in the future. Toyota does not have many brands and subsidiaries. Most cars are sold under its own brand, while Daihatsu takes care of mini cars and Lexus concentrates on premium and luxury cars. Scion is a youthful brand created by its US marketing division and is still rather insignificant. Heavy trucks and commercial vehicles are produced by its subsidiary Hino. Toyota did not invest into foreign marques, as it believes more in its own effort.…
